A Palmer Township man is accused of setting CDs, bedding and a shirt on fire in his mother's backyard Saturday night.

Glenn Andrew Craig, 49, was found sleeping in a recliner inside close to the back door of the home in the 200 block of Orchard Drive, court documents say.

When police arrived just before 9 p.m. a 2-foot-by-2 foot section of the grass was on fire, a shirt and blanket were smoldering and there was a burnt gas can along with burnt CDs strewn on the lawn, documents say. It appears Craig doused an object with gasoline and then lit it on fire with matches, records say.

The fire drew neighbors out of their home and both the fire department and EMS were called, records say.

Craig's mother, Martha Craig, told police her son needs help and he is not welcome in the home, police said. Martha Craig asked police to check the home for any alcohol. The search turned up what appeared to be cocaine, a straw and a razor blade in plain view, police said. A field drug test confirmed it was cocaine, records say.

Craig faces charges of arson, recklessly endangering another person, possession of a controlled substance and disorderly conduct. He was arraigned and sent to jail after failing to post $25,000 bail, records say.
